I run Racers Edge and Traxxas Top fuel. Everyone has there favs, some people run O'donnels, some run side winder and a host of different brands. Some are more race and experiance orientated, some like traxxas have what's called ignitors and it makes it some what easier to tune and run, draw back is that the ignitors leave behind residue.

I would say no, from my experiance I have not had to much trouble from the residue. It might foul out your glow plug eventually, but it doesn't seem to hurt the engine. No there is no way to clean it out when you are done for the day, short of tearign down the entire engine and cleaning each internal piece.

um abaut the fuel leaking on the head the screws or your glow plug might be loos. and abaut the tank youmight have a small crak in it. how big is the leak? enyway if its a small leak and if you can find the crak or the whole clean the area araund it and sand it a little to make it ruf so the sealent will bond. put som realy realy good sealent on it like gorila glue or somthing and let it dry put the tank back in and check if its still leaking if it is you might have to get a new tank. i hope this is enugh help
